PAWS BELIEVES IN THE FIVE FREEDOMS ALL ANIMALS DESERVE: A) FREEDOM FROM HUNGER AND THIRST ACCESS TO FRESH WATER AND DIETB) FREEDOM FROM DISCOMFORT PROVIDING AN APPROPRIATE ENVIRONMENT INCLUDING SHELTER AND A COMFORTABLE RESTING AREA.C) FREEDOM FROM PAIN, INJURY OR DISEASE PREVENTION OR RAPID DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENTD) FREEDOM TO EXPRESS NORMAL BEHAVIOR PROVIDING SUFFICIENT SPACE, PROPER FACILITIES, AND COMPANY OF THE ANIMAL'S OWN KIND.E) FREEDOM FROM FEAR AND DISTRESS ENSURING CONDITIONS AND TREATMENT WHICH AVOID MENTAL SUFFERING.2) MEDICAL SUPPORT FOR PAWS PETS BEFORE THEY ARE AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION.
